11. Track = Mpeg 1 Layer 2 !?!

[Shaolin]

When you rip an Album with Audio CD Input every track is in mp3 (mpeg 1 Layer 3), but only the eleventh (11. Track)
is in Mpeg 1 Layer 2!!!!!

This must be a bug because i tested it with many cds..

Version 8 and also 9a are affected

Hope you can fix it

Almost too odd to believe, I will have to run some tests...

[Shaolin]

Yes do this plz

Maybe only the tag info from Track 11 is written wrong and shows "layer 2" !?!?!?

ThanX

[Spoon]

Perhaps, what is telling you it is layer 2?

Try running dMC Configuration and switching the tag to 'Never Create v2' and try to rip again.

[Shaolin]

WinAMP 2.80 and mp3gain 0.7.5 is telling it
I will test it with more programs and try the configuration you said...

cu Shaolin

[Shaolin]

Okay

WinAMP
says for the 11. Track ripped from a CD

MPEG Info:
Size: 3995270 bytes
Header found at: 520 bytes
Length: 285 seconds
*MPEG 1.0 layer 2*
*112kbit, 10944 frames*
44100Hz Stereo
CRCs: Yes
Copyrighted: No
Original: Yes
Emphasis: CITT j.17

!!!Also it says 112kbit (but i choose 128kbit) in the options menü from Audio CD Input!!!!


For comparison the 10. Track MPEG Info is:
Size: 964776 bytes
Header found at: 417 bytes
Length: 60 seconds
MPEG 1.0 layer 3
128kbit, 2313 frames
44100Hz Joint Stereo
CRCs: Yes
Copyrighted: No
Original: No
Emphasis: None


Exact same ripping configuration for both tracks..

Hope this helps more

[Shaolin]

Okay

the problem is the id3v2

when i choose "never create v2" than the 11. Track of every cd is in mpeg 1 layer 3 and the right bitrate..
but when an id3v2 is created the file (11. Track) is in mpeg 1 layer 2 with 112kbit


But it is only for the 11. Track of an Album..

Hope you can fix it, because i use id3v2 and not id3v1

cu Shaolin

ThanX

It is a bug with Winamp I think.

[Shaolin]

It can't be a bug with winamp..
because it is only with the 11. Track of any album and not with the 1. , 2. , 3 and so on..
Also when i rip only the 11. Track it is buggy, too

Winamp don't know if it is the 11. Track ripped from a cd, i think ;-)

Also mp3gain says it is mpeg 1 layer 2

Sorry for my bad english.. I'm german

Thx Shaolin

[Spoon]

If you switch off the Id3v2 tags and it rips right, then switch it back on - the tag is only written after the mp3 file has been created, and writing the tag does not change the format of the file (the tag is inserted at the front of the file).

dMC uses ID3 version 2.4, I think winamp is only able to read 2.3...

[Shaolin]

Sorry, but why is every other Track as the 11. recognized right by Winamp..

It has to be a bug in dmc..
When it were a bug in winamp.. winamp would say that every track with id3v2 that were created with dmc would be mpeg 1 layer 2.. but that is not the case..
it is only every 11. Track (as mp3-File) of any cd
And Winamp can't know whick track it were on the cd before i ripped it

I don't want to argue with you.. maybe it sounds so because my english is not so good..

So the bug must be how the 11. Track is ripped when id3v2 is enabled

ThanX

No reply?!

[Spoon]

I don't know how to convince you there is not a problem (I am not able to rewrite winamp ).

Perhaps you could try Winamp 3 - it might work better.

Hold the mouse over this track 11 mp3 - does dMCs popup info about the file say it is mpeg 1 layer 2?

[Shaolin]

BIG LOL !

It does say mpeg 1 layer 3.. !!
but that is not logical..
Because something in Track 11. must be different from the other Tracks ripped with dmc..

So there must be a bug in Winamp (and mp3gain also) that can't handle the thing that is different in the 11. Track ripped by dmc..
And why is the 11. Track ripped different than all other Tracks ?



That's very funny
